Soran, Emissary of Zaros: I am called Soran. I have travelled far to bring word that the Empty Lord watches over us all. I am the emissary of Zaros. If you desire, you can declare support for Zaros. If you do so, I may have some jobs for you to do.

Can you tell me about Zaros?

Player: Can you tell me about Zaros?

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: What do you want to know about Zaros?

Who is Zaros?

Player: Who is Zaros?

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: Zaros is the Empty Lord. He is the master of fate and control; the one who watches over everything. He was the most powerful of the gods, but he was brought down by deceit, betrayed by his servants. But Zaros is far from dead. Even now he is watching you.

Why should I follow Zaros?

Player: Why should I follow Zaros?

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: Zaros is the master of his domain. He watches over us all from the background. With Zaros as your master, you have a dauntless, all-knowing protector. His ways may not always be clear, but know that your part in his great plan is pre-ordained and essential.

What does Zaros want?

Player: What does Zaros want?

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: Who am I to say what Zaros wants? His goals are beyond my and your understanding. But know this: he does not seek petty revenge or endless war.

I want to declare my support for Zaros!

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: You are currently a follower of , are you sure you wish to change

Yes. (saying 'no' will lead to the end of the conversation)

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: On behalf of Zaros's followers, I welcome you. Please, take this banner to show your support.

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: On behalf of Zaros’s followers, I welcome you. Please, take this banner to show your support. I have a gift for you: a book of stories regarding the gods and their followers. Please, read it. Hopefully you will see that even the other gods are but pawns in the Empty Lord’s great plan. The book is not yet complete, however. When you complete some jobs I will give you more pages.

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: I am called Soran. I am a faithful servant of the Empty Lord, who has sent me here to observe.

(Aligned with Zaros)

Player: Soran? What are you doing here?

Soran: At the Empty Lord's request, I am here to observe.

I'd like to support Zaros.

Player: I'd like to champion Zaros whilst I fight Tuska.

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: Your declaration is appreciated, but not applicable. Zaros is not involving himself in this conflict between lesser gods. Zaros is interested in the outcome, hence my presence. He sees no need to intervene however. The Empty Lord does not explain his motives to the likes of me, but I have no doubt that he has complete faith in the abilities of the world guardian.

What are you doing here?

Player: What are you doing here, Soran? Monitoring Tuska for Zaros?

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: To monitor Tuska, one need only look up. A telescope would be a convenience, but not a requisite. To visit Tuska herself, would be entirely unnecessary. No, I am not here to monitor that god.

But you are monitoring the other gods?

Soran's expression remains neutral as his head performs a motion that could be described as about a third of the way towards a nod. He gives no indication that this response is anything less than what you need.

But you are monitoring a god?

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: Not solely.

Will Zaros intervene if Tuska gets too close to Gielinor?

Player: Zaros wouldn't let Tuska hit Gielinor would he?

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: I am but a servant. I can not speak as to the specifics of what the Empty Lord will or will not do, only that he will protect his faithful.

What does Zaros think of our plan to weaken Tuska?

Player: Can you tell me what Zaros thinks of our plan to weaken Tuska?

Soran, Emissary of Zaros: I do not know that. I can tell you what I have observed. There is more to the gods than the champions here would have you know. By all means, allow them to save your world, but do consider the ramifications before you let them into your heart.
